Just three days after conception, I had really sore nipples and breasts. It hurt to wear a bra - but also hurt not to. This lasted around a week, before everything went back to normal. I am now in week 6 of pregnancy. I have been getting a sharp pain in my left side for about 20 minutes at a time, once a day - followed by various aches and stretching pains for a couple of hours. I've done what any first time pregnant lady would do and 'googled it' and feel comfortable that this is all pretty normal. I started to scare myself that I had an ectopic pregnancy (symptoms of which are sharp pains in the side of the body) - but the pain is bearable, and not coupled with any bleeding so I think I am ok.
Apart from these two things, nothing has changed. I still have my appetite, I haven't felt sick (just slightly when I wake up - but this is no different to normally really!) and I haven't had any headaches, spotting, tiredness - or the other million and one symptoms that you COULD get in the early stages. I feel pretty lucky really as I have just watched one of my close friends go through hell in the first 12 weeks of her pregnancy. She lost over a stone as she was so sick and could barely leave her bed! Touch wood, I seem to be getting off rather lightly! Hopefully I'm not speaking too soon...!
